Bad Apple playing in SVG format in real time right in the browser!
I simply downloaded the original video, encoded it to 15 FPS and converted it
to a monochrome bitmap image sequence with FFMPEG, then used
Potrace to convert the frames to single-path
SVG files. I then wrote a script (process_svgs.py) to extract the path data
from each SVG file, append it to a list, and save it as a JSON file for
Javascript to handle.
The animation is done by using a requestAnimationFrame loop iterating through
each frame and updating the SVG with the path data for each frame at 15 FPS.
The loop uses the audio's timing to ensure it syncs properly.
Why not?
